I hate to say it, but I couldn't follow the plot at all. I mean I got some parts, but I honestly don't understand the different countries/regions in the world, I don't get why everyone is chasing whatever they're chasing, I don't know what people are trying to do or accomplish in the game. It's all just too crazy for me, but I play for the good graphics and fun of leveling my characters. That, and it's FF
